The AE911Truth Petition
To the Members of the House of Representatives and of the Senate of the United States of America,
PLEASE TAKE NOTICE THAT:
On Behalf of the People of the United States of America, the undersigned Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth and affiliates hereby petition for, and demand, a truly independent investigation with subpoena power in order to uncover the full truth surrounding the events of 9/11/01 – specifically the collapses of the World Trade Center Towers and Building 7. We believe there is sufficient doubt about the official story and therefore the 9/11 investigation must be re-opened and must include a full inquiry into the possible use of explosives that might have been the actual cause of the destruction of the World Trade Center Twin Towers and Building 7.

If those buildings fell from some force other than controlled demolition, I'll personally kiss Dick Cheney's ass on live T.V.!! And after seeing the videos of the aircraft hitting the buildings, I still believe they were military KC-135 refueling aircraft. I refueled these planes for 9 years in the Air Force. As far as the Pentagon and the crash in Pa., we all know better. What happened to the aircraft with the passengers on them has yet to be speculated.

I am a journalist. I graduated from Auckland University in 1985 with a Master of Science (Hons) in neuropsychology/clinical neuropsychology and zoology. I initially learnt that the official story of 9/11 was a fraud from watching the documentaries: '9/11: The Road To Tyranny,' by Alex Jones and 'Confronting The Evidence.' In order to compensate for the lack of real information in the mainstream media about 9/11, I have written about the events and people related to 9/11 for publication and have contributed to Internet forums regularly, supplying information which strengthens the case to show that the official story is a hoax. I currently post 9/11-related information on my website also: Web of Evidence: What They Don't Want You To Know.
There was substantial evidence to show that thermite was used to bring down the Towers, not only as they were collapsing, but afterwords also. For example, shortly before the South Tower collapsed, molten metal was seen pouring out of the building near the 81st floor. Plus, in the aftermath of the collapses there were signs of an explosive material having been used, as explosions were occurring in the rubble, and there were fires that could not be put out with water. The nano-thermite that was located and estimated to comprise about 0.1% of the weight of the WTC dust by Neils Harrit et al, has helped to close the net on the real suspects. One thing is for certain, this composite was far too advanced a material to have emanated from the bowels of a cave.

I have collaborated with a research chemical engineer( P.E. in CA also) and he has worked with NIST reports that positively show that the jet fuel contributed very little to the duration of the fires and that in fact all the fires were very weak in historical perspective. They were oxygen starved as evidenced by the black smoke. If you dig deeper into the NIST reports they confirm that steel temperatures were low. I presented for continuing education credits at the NFPA World Safety Conference in Boston, MA 6/4/2007 My presentation showed that all three WTC collapses have no resemblance to any previous high rise fire, full scale fire tests in the UK involving much higher steel temperatures, or computer simulations using finite element analysis.

Having watched a number of films on how buildings are brought down on their own footprints as a kid, my immediate reaction to seeing the towers fall was controlled demolition. Another question that came to mind, being a former Navy pilot and knowing SOP (Standard Operating Procedures) for hijacked aircraft, was where were the interceptors? That is a question that has never been adequately explained, to my knowledge.

I saw it fall when I was in elementary school. I was in first grade. I had been told that it was terrorists, and if I were to believe any different, I was crazy. As I got older however, I started to look at many other videos, and at first I saw the minor explosions as the towers were falling. Then, after that, I saw a video about a regular building falling. It looked identical to how the wtc fell. So, I brought my laptop and my friends laptop together, and we watched the videos at the same time, and saw, that they fell together at the same time.

After reading David Ray Griffin's book, 'The 9/11 Commission: Omissions & Distortions', I knew for sure, we were being told a lie. Plus, I listened to Thom Hartmann and Randy Rhodes on the radio, at that time and felt I knew more about the truth than the Congress, who bought the lies, hook, line and sinker! Then my husband and I went to hear Richard Gage speak at a hotel near the LA Airport. With a show of hands, there were some people who weren't sure what they believed. After his talk, Richard Gage asked again for a show of hands, 'Who still doesn't believe what they've heard from us, today?' NO hands went up. I have kept in touch with A&E9/11 and supported them monetarily and happily! We must get the truth to all Americans.

I don't believe the official story as my analytical mind tells me there are too many open possibilities not explored in the official explanation. Over a million people died world wide as a result of 9/11 therefore it should at least be properly independently investigated and analyzed and published. I wonder how history and our children's children would view us if we don't?

Like everyone else, I want the truth to come out about 9/11 and for those to be trial and convicted for their part in this. Wars and the spiral of our economy has been a result of 9/11. The lives lost and loss of freedoms with the guns and liberties being taken away by the powers that be. We've been lied to.

The minute I saw the first Tower go down I knew in my gut that could not happen as I was seeing it. But then Building 7 made it crystal clear that there was not even close to enough time to prep that building for a controlled demo. Therefore it had to be prepped long before they (Pulled it). Serious time is needed for a building of this size. I don't know what was used but it was not caused by 2 planes.

It is inconceivable as I watched the towers fall that such a catastrophic event could happen, given the engineering and construction techniques used to build the World Trade Centers. I did accept at first the given rationale, but always questioned the logic and reasoning for their demise. It does not follow engineering rigor.

In 2005 I took a civil engineering course at UWM, in which they covered the collapse of WTC 7. In that class, the reason given for the total collapse of the building was that there were large stores of fuel and oxygen in the building, and pipes broken by debris from the collapse of the first two buildings fed the fire in WTC 7 the whole time the fire dept. was fighting it. I could stomach that. Once I discovered the official report from the National Institute of Standards and Technology concluded that WTC 7 collapsed from fires fueled by office furnishings I had to find out more. I found the AE911Truth video, and I want to do everything I can to share this information with others.

My first comment that morning, after being aroused by a phone call to view it on TV, was I wonder what the involvement of our government was?

The NIST report and all other official government accounts of the collapse of the three towers on 9/11 are fatally flawed due to the unlawful destruction of evidence, selection bias used for inputs in various models, willful ignorance of forensic evidence found at the sites showing molten steel (not just aluminum) and resultant iron microspheres dispersed throughout the dust in and around the collapse zone, as well as the presence of nanothermitic materials, and the unexplained symmetry and near free-fall speed of the collapse of WTC7 in particular. As for the twin towers, plastic deformation caused by column buckling and the transfer of about 2/3 of the kinetic energy from the top section to the ground should have certainly slowed the collapse considerably more than what occurred. The energy and heat that would have been required to create such immense pyroclastic flows of dust were far greater than what a simple unaided collapse would have caused. The official dismissal of hundreds of claims of audible explosions by firefighters, police officers and civilian witnesses in and around the towers at various points preceding the collapses of the buildings 1 and 2, coupled with clear audio and video evidence of said explosions, as well as the unexplained lateral ejections of massive building materials, is unacceptable. These and countless other inconsistencies in the official account of the collapses of the buildings demand a new independent investigation.

I don't have a degree in architecture or engineering, but do have nearly twenty years in the brewing profession as a brewer and brewmaster on the craft side of things. I've served as past president of Masters Brewers Association of the Americas - District Milwaukee, membership includes brewers and other professionals from all aspects in the industry including members from the largest international companies to the smallest brewpubs. Brewing requires never ending attention to detail to stay on top of process and quality, brewers are keen on small changes that occur during seemingly routine days. The lesson is that no day is routine.
Was watching live TV the morning the first tower fell. The camera had a tight shot of the corner of the first tower that fell. Just prior to the collapse, the video feed showed white hot metal pouring out the corner of the structure, pouring out like water. That struck me as very odd. I said out loud to my co-workers can these towers collapse??, the unanimous reply from several dozen people crowded around the large screen TV was no, no way. Just moments later we all watched in complete disbelief as the tower dropped straight to the ground, and I emphasize the word dropped, free fall. Then the second tower dropped. That evening Dan Rather announced that WTC7 had collapsed, I was completely stunned, no plane had hit that building. It is now my firm belief that United 93's final destination that day wasn't DC, it was #7. It didn't arrive, but at that point it had to come down or the jig would be up when/if the explosives would have been found in that structure. WTC 7 is the smoking gun.
